Chapter 1523


    However, Bianca heard Harold’s deep voice at that moment.


    “I’m overflowing with joy today. Not only is N home but I’m gathered here with all of you. Most


    importantly, I can finally seek justice for Ms. Harding!”


    “What?” Bianca’s head was spinning.


    “I know there are rumors connecting Ms. Harding to N’s disappearance over the past two days.” His


    voice carried weight. “There was an unreported incident, but I can’t believe mypetition intended to


    use this scandal to ruin me!”


    “Am I right, Ms. Mosley?”


    Bianca was stunned while everyone’s eyes fixed on her. She felt like she was about to copse under


    the intense scrutiny.


    “W-What are you saying, Mr. Patton?” Bianca asked.


    “Do you truly notprehend what I’m saying, Ms. Mosley?” Harold smiled, but his eyes remained


    cold.


    Meanwhile, Elijah red at her as though he could cut her into pieces.


    Parents were unafraid of physical harm, no matter how brutal. They would fight to the death if someone


    dared to harm their child.


    Lina and Zuko exchanged nces and nodded. Soon, their associates brought out Drake.


    Bianca’s expression changed, and she instinctively averted her gaze from Drake’s piercing eyes. He


    had initially appeared cowardly, seemingly hoping for support when he saw her.


    He struggled and screamed, “Hey… M-Ms. Bianca! You must seek justice for me!”


    “What do you think you’re doing?” she bellowed. “How am I supposed to do that?!”


    “It was you who—”


    “Yes, I gave you money,” Bianca interjected. “But I did it out of pity. Your son has cut ties with you, and


    your adopted daughter despises you! I only helped you to keep your head above water! I can’t believe


    your ingratitude… You must have offended the Hamerstons, didn’t you?”


    Although Drake was no saint, he had never distorted the truth like Bianca.


    He had never stooped to her level!


    He stood there, dumbfounded, unsure of what to say.


    Lina sneered. “You’re quite skilled at denying the truth, Ms. Mosley!”


    “What are you talking about, Pam?!” Bianca panicked. “H-He’s clearly Lena’s adoptive father! Why


    are you dragging me into this? I even advised you to stay away from Lena…


    “She grew up in such a toxic environment, constantly exposed to human trafficking. With the Chriss’


    daughter being kidnapped, both father and daughter are undoubtedly guilty!”


    “He may be Lena’s adoptive father, but he followed your orders, didn’t he?” Zuko rose to his feet. His


    icy demeanor made Bianca take two steps back.


    Chris approached Lena, holding her hand.

    Lena took a deep breath, herposure unshaken, her eyes resolute.


    Zuko scoffed. “Bianca, don’t tell me you believe that this four-star hotel is so tacky they would never


    repair their backyard surveince?”


    “What?” Bianca eximed.


    Zuko gestured, and the screen on the stage descended slowly. Someone came forward to y the


    surveince footage.


    “The backyard surveince was indeed malfunctioning for a while,” the hotel manager exined as he


    took over. “However, it has been fixed for quite some time. It was operational. The issue was with file


    transfers, making it appear as if it was perpetually out of order.


    “Thanks to the technicians from the Hamerton Group, we’ve sessfully recovered the files!”


    Bianca’s face turned ashen as she stared at the screen as if she had seen a ghost.


    The guests began to piece it together. “You see, I knew there had to be a reason why Mr. Patton chose


    this four-star hotel for the celebration party. This is it!”
